Hi! Concerning different behaviour between 1.9.1 patched and: R : Copyright 2004, The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Version 2.0.0 Under development (unstable) (2004-09-06), ISBN 3-900051-07-0 Subtitle: as(x,"vector"); x is of class "Massvector"; never enters setAs("Massvector","vector"... The same code: as(mvl[[1]],"vector") causes

Dear R-helpers, I have just installed R2.0.0 onto my machine which already had R1.9.1 present. I then tried to add to R2.0.0 a library called GLMM written by James McBroom for R1.6.0. Unfortunately, R2.0.0 does not recognise the library, even though R1.9.1 does. This is not because I have used the wrong case in the call to the library: > library('GLMM') > "Error in

Hi! I am trying to install the RMySQL package.

Hi I use RSvgDevice to output plot, and modify them using svg editor (inkscape or sodipodi on Linux). Some month ago, results were perfect. I did exactly the same analysis today on the same data, and unfortunatly the results are different. While looking to the svg file, it seems that all information concerning "fill" and "stroke" of objects are lost. The consequence is that

Hallo! I read SPSS data in the following way: library(Hmisc) library(foreign) dat<-spss.get("surv_abb.sav") In R1.9.1 I got the message: "Error in all(arg == choices) : Object "typeDate" not found" In R1.8.0 the same script works fine. Does anybody know a possibilty to read a SPSS file under R1.9.1? Thanks! Karl

Hello, I'm running R 2.14.1 on OS X (x86_64-apple-darwin9.8.0/x86_64 (64-bit)), with version 3.28 of Thomas Lumley's survey package. I was using predict() from svyglm(). E.g.: data(api) dstrat<-svydesign(id=~1,strata=~stype, weights=~pw, data=apistrat, fpc=~fpc) out <- svyglm(sch.wide~ell+mobility, design=dstrat, family=quasibinomial()) pred.df <-

Hello, I ran my simulations on the Unix verson of R1.9.1 and the Windows version of R2.0.1 on XP. I kept getting different values for the mean of the same column of the same matrix, and am perplexed. I would appreciate if anyone could help explain the difference? Here is a sample code: set.seed(7293) z1v <- rnorm(1000, mean=68, sd=13) z1v <- (z1v-mean(z1v))/sd(z1v) Using R1.9.1 on Unix,

Dear all, The help file for the generic function vcov states "Classes with methods for this function include: 'lm', 'glm', 'nls', 'lme', 'gls', 'coxph' and 'survreg' (the last two in package 'survival')." Since, I am not able to use vcov.coxph(), I am wondering whether I am missing something (as I suspect..) regards, vito

Hi there, After I fitted a cox model, I used vcov to obtain the variance of the parameter estimate. It worked correctly in R 1.9.1. But it failed in R 2.0.0 and the error message is Error in vcov(cox.1) : no applicable method for "vcov" I don't know if it is a bug or there is some update on this function. Thanks! Lei Liu Assistant Professor Division of Biostatistics and

Hello all, I am trying to get the variance-covariance (VCOV) matrix of the parameter estimates produced from the nlminb minimizing function, using vcov.nlminb, but it seems to have been expunged from the MASS library. The hessian from nlminb is also producing NaNs, although the estimates seems to be right, so I can't VCOV that way either. I also tried using the vcov function after minimizing

Dear R Help, I wonder the way to show the source code of [vcov] command. Usually, it can show the source code after input the command and enter. But for [vcov], it shows function (object, ...) UseMethod("vcov") <environment: namespace:stats> I appreciate for your help. Best wishes. Christina [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I'm trying to compute survey svytable statistic on subsets by using the svyby function. Here is the code: b<-svyby(~V024+V751, by=~V025, design=strat2, svytable, round=TRUE) The vars, V024, V751 and V025 are factors. The by var has 2 levels, and hence there will be two subsets. strat2 is created by the svydesign function. It's giving me the following error: >

Hi all I am hoping this is just a minor problem, I am trying to implement a best subsets regression procedure on some ecological datasets using the regsubsets function in the leaps package. The dataset contains 43 predictor variables plus the response (logcount) all in a dataframe called environment. I am implementing it as follows: library(leaps)

coef() and vcov() have different dimensions if a model contains alised parameters as the following example illustrates. A search on "alised" gave noting as far as I could see. Is this a known bug?

Hi all-- We are planning an intervention study for adolescent alcohol use, and I am planning to use simulations based on a hurdle model (using the hurdle() function in package pscl) for sample size estimation. The simulation code and power code are below -- note that at the moment the "power" code is just returning the coefficients, as something isn't working quite right. The

Hi, I have troubles getting RWinEdt with the R2.0.0 Version startet. Do I have to install a different version of RWinEdt or WinEdt? I have RWinEdt 1.6.1 and WinEdt 5.3. Thanks Anna Hennig

R Users - I asked about this a few months ago and never did quite figure it out, so with more information, allow me to try again. If I use the following code: library(xml) xmlTreeParse("http://home.comcast.net/~larsenmtl/xmlTestDoc.xml", isURL = TRUE) I receive this error: Error in xmlTreeParse("http://home.comcast.net/~larsenmtl/xmlTestDoc.xml"", : error in

Hi, I'm using maxlik with functions specified (L, his gradient & hessian). Now I would like determine some robust standard errors of my estimators. So I 'm try to use vcovHC, or hccm or robcov for example but in use one of them with my result of maxlik, I've a the following error message : Erreur dans terms.default(object) : no terms component Is there some attributes

Hi all, I am doing some intensive computation right now. My system is Pentium4 3.20G + 1.0G RAM + WindowsXP + R1.9.1. It seems my computer is very powerful. However, when I do some simple matrix algebra operations based on a matrix (DD) with dimension 5000000 by 2, I found that the consumption of RAM is huge. For example, the command a <- 1 - DD[,2] eats my 100M RAM. Does anyone know how
